Hi,
Last year I was forced to change the MB in one of my boxes to an A2SDi-4C-HLN4F, it was basically plug n' play.
The box is only used to receive backups (time machine and a copy of my borgbackup from another server), which means that there is no reason for the harddrives to spin 24/7, and with the old MB (Asus P10S-I) they would spin down after 10 minutes and save me tiny bit on the electricity bill.
That does not happen with the A2SDi-4C-HLN4F - have any one else noticed this and found a solution?
I've enabled powersave via hdparm:
$ hdparm --yes-i-know-what-i-am-doing -s 1 /dev/sdX
And I set spin down time to 10 minutes:
$ hdparm -S 120 /dev/sdX
But they happily just spin on....
Any idea?
Thanks.
